I can confirm this on IBM x40 also with the Atheros ABG wireless card:

lspci gives this:
02:02.0 Ethernet controller: Atheros Communications, Inc. AR5212 802.11abg NIC 
(rev 01)

My ath0 interface is identified as a wired network.

I found that logging out of Gnome and from a tty login restart dbus
helps:

sudo /etc/init.d/dbus restart
After logging into Gnome the card is identified as a wireless card again. 
Perhaps less will do, but I haven't found out yet... I'll post here if I find a 
better solution.

I also tried the following which ISN'T enough:
sudo /etc/dbus-1/event.d/26NetworkManagerDispatcher stop
sudo /etc/dbus-1/event.d/25NetworkManager stop
sudo /etc/dbus-1/event.d/25NetworkManager start
sudo /etc/dbus-1/event.d/26NetworkManagerDispatcher start
killall nm-applet
nm-applet --sm-disable

Let me know if you need any info from log files and so.
